We all have to monitor it. There are laws, both national and international, that limit the freedom of governments to act against their citizens, but if no one points out to them that they are violating international norms by their actions, governments can continue to violate with impunity. Each of us, as individuals, should not only respect the rights of others in our daily lives, but also keep a close eye on the actions of our governments and those of others. Rights protection systems exist so that we can all benefit from them.
